The
Department of Philosophy is greatly pleased to announce that Kathrin Koslicki has joined the department. Previously an Associate Professor at the University of Colorado Boulder, she has been hired by the University of Alberta at the rank of Full Professor. Koslicki's research is in metaphysics, ancient philosophy, and philosophy of language. She also combines these areas with her development of a neo-Aristotelian approach on such contemporary metaphysical issues as parts and wholes, ontological dependence, fundamentality, essence, truthmaking, and the nature of artifacts and artworks - currently she engages with our students on these matters in a seminar she teaches.
Welcome to the department, Kathrin!
